Review: Highly engrossing and underrated classic - I watched this for the first time recently and was so impressed i've rewatched it several times - not something you can say very often with a 'slasher' movie. I had heard that Halloween had been partly inspired by this movie, released in 1974, some 4 years before Halloween. But when you watch this film, if you haven't seen it before, the similarities with Halloween are really obvious. The opening scene, with the POV shot from the killer as he goes up to the house and climbs the trellis up to the attic, will immediately remind you of that famous sequence in Halloween. Even the guy and girl kissing and agreeing to call each other later. But I found this movie quite disturbing overall, and actually more intelligent and provocative than Halloween, since it doesn't just rely on shocks. We never really know who the killer is, and yet he is a demented, obsessive and obscene phone caller. It's interesting that this film came out not long after The Exorcist, and when the first call is heard, the caller sounds quite similar to the devil in that earlier movie, complete with the use of profanities and the 'c' word, and appearing to adopt different voices. I think the director is really clever in exploiting the unknown as a source of terror and suspense. There is very little explicit gore, but he leaves just enough to your imagination to make you feel genuinely uneasy. I love the way the tension builds towards the end, when John Saxon - played brilliantly as always - the local sheriff tries to tap the call and trace where the killer is located. This is a really underrated movie - and with some great acting (and humour) from the lead actresses Olivia Hussey and Margot Kidder, and am surprised it isn't shown more often. Has John Carpenter ever publicly acknowledged his debt to this Canadian gem? The influences seem obvious - Carpener obviously decided he was on to something by moving the drama from Xmas to Halloween - and tapped into box office gold as a result. Watch this film together with Halloween and make up your own mind. Both are undeniably classic greats, but to me this one is the more memorable, original and really quite disturbing IMHO. It lives on with you, afterwards.
Review: “Isn’t Santa naughty!” [Barbara] - This 1974 psychological horror [aka: Silent Night, Evil Night, aka: stop me, aka: Stranger in the House] follows a group of sorority sisters who during the festive season are receiving threatening phone calls, while being stalked and murdered. But how many will have to die before the police really become interested? Very much a modest budget movie of its time this has wobbly titles and is actually one of the earliest slasher films. The sorority ‘babes’ are ‘normal’ girls in everyday clothing, so the beer and popcorn brigade may be a little disappointed, but as a horror the film is better for it. Creating a great atmosphere, the superb soundtrack raises this above the usual dross. Marian Waldman as Mrs Mac is superb and the dry sitcom humour is always present when she’s on screen. Opening directly to main menu offering play, 2.0 or 5.1, scene selection. Extras [audio commentary, Black Christmas revisited and all through the house, art & photo gallery, trailers and tv spots] and trailers. With lots of bad and inappropriate language [including the C and F words], blasphemy [well it is Xmas!], lots of drinking and smoking [Xmas!] scenes of murder and adult topics such as abortion and child murder, this is an obvious 18 rating. An excellent xmas movie for those looking for something departing from the usual festivities and an all round is unsettling in its realism and is a ***** recommendation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Horror Movie
*by G***N on 22 October 2010*

I first saw Black Christmas at the cinema, more years ago than I care to remember. I bought it on Amazon as a christmas gift to myself last year and even after all these years it still has the capacity to shock and entertain me. Aside from middle of the night screenings on Channel Four this film hardly ever appears on either terrestrial or cable. As a shocker it is 100% original, it pre dates both Halloween and Friday the 13th yet hardly anyone seems to have heard of it and even fewer people seem to be aware the effects it had on its far more illustrious and in my opinion slightly inferior shocker relatives. The cast are excellent John "B movie king" Saxon, Margot Kidder and Olivia Hussey are all standouts. Black Christmas will make you laugh, shudder and jump in equal measures. If you are a fan of ground breaking, CGI free original and pure horror this is the perfect film for you. After being at the upper end pricewise it has come down significantly in price. So buy now to avoid disappointment but only if you enjoy being scared.
